Streszczenie
The authors attempt to explain some essential problems connected
with the shaping of the settlement network. The research
results presented in this article possess a character of diagnosis
of the present situation. The researches encompassed towns situated
within the so-called central macroregion, with the main attention
being focussed on:
a) assessment of changes in functions performed by the towns
under review in the settlement system over the period of 1973-
-1978.
b) determination of the rate of changes in development of the
towns on the basis of demographic processes occuring in them over
the years 1946-1970.
The researches allowed to reveal a number of significant phenomena
and causalities appearing in the settlement system, and
among others the phenomenon of oubstitution of towns development according to their functions, size, apatial location etc.
The size of the sample (93 towns), i.e, ever 10 per cent of the
total number óf Po)and'a towns allows to treat the authors
conclusion as ones of more general nature and since they may refer
to majority of towns in Poland.
